Hi,
I need advice on building a quiet gaming PC and a good LCD.
Budget: No limit. – Main aim is to make this machine quiet..most of the time.
I don't care if its a bit noisy when under load(playing games) but the rest of the time I want it to be quiet.
Needs to be able to survive in 32 degree heat...
I'm mainly looking at being able to run:
Starcraft 2
Bad Company 2
Dragon Age
Mass Effect 2
Batman: Arkham Asylum.
Here is the starting build:
CPU: AMD AM3 Phenom II X4 955BE
CPU HSF: Zalman CNPS10X Performa
Mobo: Gigabyte MA770TA-UD3
RAM: G.Skill-NT 4GB DDR3-1333
SSD: G.Skill Falcon II 64GB SSD
HDD: Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB
GFX: Gigabyte 9800GT Silent Cell – Surely there is something faster and quiet.
Case: Antec P183
PSU: No CLUE????
ODD: Lite-ON DVD burner
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
Thanks in advance
